User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:61.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/61.0 Build ID: 20180503152818 Steps to reproduce: The Firefox Developer version shows invalid file name. From the Firefox properties the Original filename shows like this "../../dist/bin/firefox.exe" Expected results: The Original file name should be Firefox.exe
:Gijs, a little help please. If I click the Component drop-down box here, Build Config is missing from both Firefox and Core. Is that normal — does moving and filing reports there require special privileges? crashreporter.exe ../../../dist/bin/crashreporter.exe firefox.exe ../../dist/bin/firefox.exe maintenanceservice.exe ../../../dist/bin/maintenanceservice.exe maintenanceservice_installer.exe maintenanceservice_installer.exe ^ this one's OK! minidump-analyzer.exe ../../../dist/bin/minidump-analyzer.exe pingsender.exe ../../../../dist/bin/pingsender.exe plugin-container.exe ../../dist/bin/plugin-container.exe plugin-hang-ui.exe ../../../../dist/bin/plugin-hang-ui.exe updater.exe ../../../../dist/bin/updater.exe

I think the build stuff moved to its own product...

Almost certainly a regression from bug 1255485. I don't think this is harmful, it's just for display. Looks like we could just wrap the argument to `-BINARY` in `$(notdir)` here: https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/2d95d70298e248161b629ef1d0d57049c0b62d71/config/version.mk#25

The original filename looks sensible in my local build with this patch.
We should be able to uplift this to beta once it lands, it's a trivial patch and bug 1255485 is on beta.

Please request Beta approval on this when you get a chance. No point in shipping this regression for a release when it's easily avoidable.
